Hello,
I'm trying to add autopkgtest support to my packages, I'm however having
an issue with hwloc:
https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/testing/amd64/h/hwloc/621648/log.gz
Broken hwloc-nox:amd64 Conflicts on hwloc:amd64 < none -> 1.11.10-3 @un puN >
Considering hwloc:amd64 9999 as a solution to hwloc-nox:amd64 10001
Conflicts//Breaks against version 1.11.10-2 for hwloc but that is not InstVer, ignoring
The story is that the hwloc source package provides both a X11 build
(hwloc) and a non-X11 build (hwloc-nox). I was thinking that for CI
using hwloc-nox is preferred to make the build lighter, but allowing
hwloc too is helpful so I can also run the test on my box with the null
container. Thus I had set
Depends: hwloc-nox | hwloc
but it seems that autopkgtest does not understand that?
